What is DSCR?
Care Control has earned full accreditation from the NHS and is a proud member of the Digital Social Care Records (DSCR) within its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). Our commitment to advancing health technology is gaining recognition, and we couldn’t be more thrilled.
Transforming Care Delivery
Digital Social Care Records (DSCR) in the NHS are electronic systems designed to replace traditional paper-based care records in social care settings.
These records enable the digital recording of care information and the care received by individuals, allowing real-time sharing of this information with authorized health and care professionals.
DSCRs allow for better routine monitoring, early detection of issues, and timely interventions, which can significantly reduce risks and incidents.
Information can be shared securely across different care settings, ensuring that all care providers have access to the most up-to-date information.
The adoption of DSCRs reduces the administrative burden on care workers, allowing them to spend more time on direct patient care. It also minimizes errors related to manual record-keeping.
DSCRs facilitate more personalized care by providing care staff with better tools and information to respond to the needs of individuals promptly.
Accelerating Digital
The NHS has been investing in this digital transformation through various programs, including the Frontline Digitisation programme, to ensure that by March 2024, 80% of social care providers have adopted DSCRs.
Funding and support are available to help care providers transition to these digital systems, with assured supplier lists provided to ensure compliance with national standards.
